Abstract

ABSTRACTHere, we report the draft genome sequences of two nitrogen-fixing symbionts, Bradyrhizobium sp. strain sGM-13 and Bradyrhizobium sp. strain sBnM-33, isolated from root nodules of peanut grown on soil samples collected from two regions in South Tunisia. The draft genome sizes of these two strains are 8.31 × 106 bp and 8.97 × 106 bp, respectively.

Highlights

  • Nitrogen-fixing bacteria called rhizobia are known for their ability to form symbioses with a wide range of legumes and convert atmospheric nitrogen into a form that can be assimilated by plants [1]

  • NZ_LLYA00000000.1) and 89.53% with respect to each other. These values are well below the generally accepted species threshold of 95%, and they appear to belong to two distinct species [15, 16]. These two strains found in the arid soils of southern Tunisia present promising raw materials for the development of bacterial inoculum to improve peanut cultivation in the southern Mediterranean region

  • ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This work was financed by the Partenariat Hubert Curien UTIQUE project 17G0918, a mobility grant (Bourse d’Alternance) from the University of Gabès, and a doctoral partner scholarship from the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs
